Consumed By Hate

What have you taken away?

A smothering indistinctness of pain as thoughts darken.

Once we enjoyed innocence, untainted and open.

But, your love perished.

A vengeful vision of bitterness-

Memories follow darkness , follow pain,

Love forgotten.

In a haze or sorrow, I reject you.
